Newly Constructed Loft Apartment in the Coral Resort in Ceará, Trairi

The dominant part of Guajiru’s natural vegetation is still intact and untouched. The village and surroundings are rich in palm trees, banana plants, cashew trees, castanholas, sugar canes, guajiru as well as mango trees. And as quite a contrast, in the sand dunes behind the village there are hardly any plants at all. Cows and donkeys walk around freely and wind blows hard off the steep dunes. In the middle of Guajiru there is a stream coming from the dunes.

The sand dunes which also make the Nordeste famous are the so-called “moving” dunes. Since there is no vegetation, nothing holds the sand together, and the strong winds that come from the sea blow the sand away in such a rate that every three months you can visually see a difference in height of the dunes. At the bottom of most of the dunes used to be water pools which formed natural reservoirs for dry times. After the construction of the windmills, most of them were closed down, creating a water problem in the village. In some places the dunes have moved so far that you can see 100-year-old “iron wood”. This is a tree that is so strong, you can’t break it by hand. The area used to be scattered with them.

The winds and high waves during high tide make perfect conditions for nautical sports like kite surfing. At low tide, pools appear on the beach and corals are visible under a turquoise blue sea. The dunes are beautiful to visit by buggy.

Trips and Tours can be booked anywhere in the village, the most handy place would be one of the resorts where they have got all the info and speak English.
